So, Joe Biden is a champion at something after 50-years in DC.

The Border Patrol set its all-time annual record for arrests along the southern border in fiscal year 2021, according to new data Friday that puts a grim exclamation point on President Biden’s stewardship of the boundary.
The 1,659,206 arrests recorded over the last 12 months tops fiscal year 2000, the previous record holder, by about 15,000.
Of those the Border Patrol arrested, nearly 500,000 were either released outright or turned over to other federal agencies within the U.S. without an immediate clear pathway toward deportation, signaling most of those were likely released into the country.
In addition to the Border Patrol, which snares illegal immigrants who try to sneak in between the ports of entry, officers along the southern border encountered another 75,000 or so illegal immigrants who tried to come through the official border crossings without authorization.
In September alone, Border Patrol agents and Customs and Border Protection officers recorded 192,001 encounters with illegal immigrants. That’s the worst September on record, though the numbers are a slight improvement on July and August, when more than 200,000 encounters were recorded each month.
Almost all of the chaos has happened in the eight months since President Biden has held the reins, with 83% of the Border Patrol’s yearly arrests coming during that time.

During the last full month under President Trump in December, Border Patrol agents caught and released just 17 people. In July, under Mr. Biden, that number was more than 60,000.
